Sir., Permit to me present you myselfL. I am an Spanish Republic Army General, now Political refugee in the United States of America. I was Under Secretary of War in the year 1936-37 and later former Military Attachee to the Spanish Republic Embassy at VWashintongD,DC. at 1939 untill the defeat of the Republic. I am sending you a pamphlet with the Lawis proclaimed in Spain against Freemasonry by the Fascist Governtment of Spain. I believe that tiis knowledge will be lawful to you and to the United Nations Conference. I read the appeals to peace and brotherhhod made by Charles W.Froessell, Grand Master of Masons in the State of 'New York and your answer and I am agree with you words in the task not easy of the maintenance of peace and security in the future. You can sure that the Spanish Masons we are figting for the peace against Franco and the Dictators, We are the preferred victims the nazism and the fascism untill leave in Spain. I remain t F Laws Proclaimed in Spai~n I Against "Freemasonry" By the Dictator Francisco Franco. Issued by the Gaceta Oficial of March Ist, 1940 Z 43 ýz oA 4'Af EXII-Vo MEXICO, D. F.

MCMXLVMML TO ALL LIERAY-S OF' THE WORLD, ESPECIALLY~ TO THE FREEMASONS It would appear surprising to someone, strange to others and extemporaneous to the most, the resolution taken by the Respect- able Lodge "LUZ HISPANICA No. 83" of Mexico City ordering the translation and publication of the present pamphlet. After a little pondering it will be easily seen that both the extraneous and the surprised are lacking of motives to think with such trifleness, when after nine years from theý beginning of the Military Revolt and after six years of unlawful govern- ment of Franco and his cohorts' of betrayers, there are still people in -this World who continue giving a deaf ear to the truth about thd Spanish Affair; when even HH.: our brothers continue ignoring or pretend to igno~re what happened in Spain W With dlear and most worthy Masons who* were sacrificed for having committed no other fault but having been members of our Honorable Institution; therefore, it is our firm belief that Ehis* booklet wil~l perhaps reach you with somewhat delay but hot out of time. Freemasorpry is, for the Phalarigist Government which now disgraces and enfeebles Spain, the preferred victim. For this reason, we wish, once more, to exalt 6ur protest before the free- men of the Universe with the sincere aim that this will not fall in. -3- deaf ears as this would be criminal. We Aare addressfing oar-' selves with special mention to the English speaking Masons with otim supplication that this barbarous Law transcribed as. follows be read in your Lodges and disseminated throughout all social spheres. Our goal is that our protest and our -complaint may *have the effects of an exciting drug in the spirits of all the dele- gates occurring to the San Francisco Conference, that they may raise also their combined protest, echo of our' affliction; that irV that proximate structuiring of a World of Peace and justice, Spain, strugglin'g and bleeding to excess, can not be and shall not be forgotten; as if once more the Spanish people are dis- -regarded there will not be a nation., great or small, free of the opprobious branded mark of complicity.
